Answer:
Trophic level
Consumer
Producer
Explanation:
All living organisms require energy for their life processes, which they obtain by taken in food. In an ecosystem, this food is derived when organisms feed on each other. This process that eventually leads to a flow of energy within organisms is called FOOD CHAIN.
A food chain or food web always begins with a unique set of organisms called PRODUCERS. Producers are autotrophs capable of harvesting light energy from the sun and use it to produce their food (chemical) in a process called PHOTOSYNTHESIS. Other organisms called HETEROTROPHS feed on these producers to derive energy. In ecology, they are called CONSUMERS. Other consumers feed on the previous ones also to get energy.
Hence, each step of the food chain is occupied by organisms that obtain and store energy by feeding on another organism. This step is called TROPHIC LEVEL.
In a nutshell, a PRODUCER (usually plants) starts the food chain/web due to its photosynthetic ability. This producer gets eaten by an organism called CONSUMER and in the process, the energy and nutrient stored in the producers flows to the consumer. Another consumers feeds on the previous one and the energy keeps flowing. Each step of the food chain occupied by an organism that stores and transfers this energy is called TROPHIC LEVEL.
Answer:
Logistic
Explanation:
As the newly mated queen inhabit the new habitat, the population of the ants would increase slowly first followed by a rapid increase in the population size. Once the population size reaches the carrying capacity, it is leveled off.
Carrying capacity is the maximum number of the individuals of a population that can be supported indefinitely by a habitat. Once the population reaches the carrying capacity, one or other required resources become limited which in turn does not allow the exponential growth of the population.
This type of population growth wherein the exponential increase is followed by leveling out the population as the carrying capacity is reached, is called logistic population growth.
When antibiotics attacks a bacteria first the growth of bacteria is stopped and the bacteria will become unable to divide and spread throughout the body via the bloodstream and aortic arteries. An antibiotics' main job is to stop the growth of bacteria and other foreign entities inside our body, such as a virus, fungal spore, parasites, and other dangerous and potentially deadly protozoa, so as to prevent the body from harm that may be fatal.
On cellular level, antibiotics chemically damage the bacteria or targeted organism's DNA and alter it in such a way that they will become unable to divide any further and thus become unable to reproduce and eventually die off as the white blood cells engulf the decaying organism's body, so it doesn't become dangerous.
